Raparound™ anode
Cathodic protection for jetties and piers in harsh conditions

Raparound physical specifications


Current rating 20 - 50 amps for 20 Years, depending on water chemistry.
You can insert the table below as an additional guideline to specifiers. It can be linked to all ICCP products.
Frame 1/2" steel ruggedized frame, hot dip galvanized. Diver-friendly hinged attachment: 12" - 60" Diameter. HPile or hex pile adapter available. Made from heavy gauge welded steel, hot dip galvanized to ASTM A123-M 09. Standard design includes ice-shearing cleats and anode-mount ice protection cap. Lifting padeyes and a hinged attachment allow safe and easy diver attachment. All fasteners are galvanized to ASTM A153 standards.
Shield Neoprene / PE Composite design; provides impact resistance and dielectric strength.
Anode housing Black Delrin
Anode mounts Machined from Black Delrin, to provide protection against impact and abrasion. A total of 24 1/2" fasteners are used to ruggedly secure the active electrode array to the steel subframe.
Di-Electric shield Main Dielectric is 3mm UPVC Sheet. Impact protectionis provided by 12 mm Neoprene outer shield. Shield provides equivalent 300 mm anode standoff distance from mounting pile.
Anode element Mixed metal oxide (MMO) center connect tube, 1" x 39"
Cable 70 mm2 PE/PE/DGSWA/PE (typical), Various cable specifications available. All are double steel wire armored construction.

Ice-proof cable protection channels are availabe for areas with high icing tendency or wide tide variation. These may be provided in bolt-on or direct weld configuration.

Deepwater recommends derating of anode performance as above to provide a high measure of system redundancy. The mixed metal oxides are a mixture of IrO2/Ta2O5. Titanium substrates meet ASTM B338 Grade 1 or 2 Standards. All connections are made as tubular denter-connects, helium tested (including discs).
